Palletizing Projects
Triple Cell Custom Palletizer
Food and Beverage Industry
The Project
This once manual and repetitive process was transformed into an intelligent palletizing project that accepts packed and sealed cases from the weigh system. Here, the information is feed to the company database and a label is produced and placed on the case. Pass/fail procedures ensure the right information and boxes get added to the pallet and packing list. When the accumulation zone is full, the robots pick up cases and follow the preset stacking configuration until the pallet is full. A full pallet is then sent to the packout conveyor where it is feed to the stretch wrapper then onto unload conveyor. The complete automation project increases efficiency, improves ergonomics and saves time for material handlers.
Hear What Our Customers Have to Say
Dual Cell Custom Palletizer
Food and Beverage Industry
The Project
This project was part of a long term, multiple phase strategic engineering plan to identify where to cut down on labor costs, make palletizing ergonomic and safer for employees, and centrally locate the palletizing area. Before this cell, operators would stand at the end of 7 production lines and manually palletize boxes on pallets. This setup removed 5 operators from the process and stationed 2 operators at the centrally located palletizing cell. The company received a cost-effective solution, gained a long-term automation partner, and the maintenance staff was trained to reduce down time on new equipment.
Single Cell Custom Palletizer
Consumer Good Industry
The Project
Imagine reducing the number of employees needed to operate your facility from 14 hourly employees to only 3 per shift. The updated process for this company allowed our automated solution to receive sealed, weighed bales of insulation directly to the Yaskawa robot. What once took many employees to stack these bales 8 layers high, replace and position pallets, and manually wrap the final pallet, was automated with a robot, pallet destacker, and wrap station.
Material Handling Automation Opportunity Areas:
Material handling is another industry that has required the help of Alliance Automation’s flexible automation products. The increased demand that each company faces is unique, and every automation project must scale with the company as they grow. Automation projects in this industry focus on achieving technology goals across many processes and stages. Managing materials efficiently, maintaining high-quality standards, and reducing operational costs are key challenges. Automation equipment is integrated into packaging, material handling, quality control, standard inspection systems, and palletizing.
